| Inspection | 
| 1. | 
		 
			TEST TCM GROUND CIRCUIT: Measure resistance between TCM and chassis 
			ground using the backside of TCM harness connector as TCM side check 
			point. If the problem is found, repair it. 
		
  | 
	
| 2. | 
		 
			TEST TCM CONNECTOR: Disconnect the TCM connector and visually check 
			the ground terminals on TCM side and harness side for bent pins or poor 
			contact pressure. If the problem is found, repair it.  
		 | 
	
| 3. | 
		 
			If problem is not found in Step 1 and 2, the TCM could be faulty. If 
			so, make sure there were no DTC's before swapping the TCM with a new 
			one, and then check the vehicle again. If DTC's were found, examine 
			this first before swapping TCM. 
		 | 
	
| 4. | 
		 
			RE-TEST THE ORIGINAL TCM: Install the original TCM (may be broken) into 
			a known-good vehicle and check the vehicle. If the problem occurs again, 
			replace the original TCM with a new one. If problem does not occur, 
			this is intermittent problem (Refer to “Intermittent Problem Inspection 
			Procedure” in Basic Inspection Procedure).  
		 | 
	
| Removal | 
| 1. | 
		 
			Perform the oil pressure characteristics backup procedure using the 
			diagnostic tool when replacing with a new TCM. 
		
 
  | 
	
| 2. | 
		 
			Turn ignition switch OFF.  
		 | 
	
| 3. | 
		 
			Disconnect the battery (-) terminal (A). 
		 | 
	
| 4. | 
		 
			Disconnect the battery (+) terminal (B). 
		
 
  | 
	
| 5. | 
		 
			Remove the battery mounting bracket (A) and the battery (B). 
		
 
  | 
	
| 6. | 
		 
			Disconnect the TCM connector (A).  
		
  | 
	
| 7. | 
		 
			Remove the bolts (A) and nut (B). 
		 | 
	
| 8. | 
		 
			Remove the TCM (C). 
		
  | 
	
| Installation | 
| 1. | 
		 
			To install, reverse the removal procedure.  
		 | 
	
| 2. | 
		 
			Oil-pressure characteristics input (TCM exchange) 
		
 
  | 
	
| 3. | 
		 
			Perform the procedures related in the ECM after replacing the TCM. 
		
			(Refer to Engine Control / Fuel System - "Engine Control Module")
		 
		 | 
	
| 4. | 
		 
			Perform TCM learning after replacing the transaxle to prevent slow transaxle 
			response, jerky acceleration and jerky startup. 
		
			(Refer to Automatic Transaxle Control System - "Repair procedures")
